Correct answer
Yes, as soon as safe, gradually and with signalling.
Yes, as soon as it is safe, gradually and with signalling, without forcing others to alter course or speed. Immediate return does not mean cutting off the overtaken vehicle. Article 83.1 allows remaining to carry out a further overtake on roads with at least two lanes in the same direction, without undue inconvenience to faster following vehicles. Driving at the speed limit gives no right to occupy the left lane indefinitely.
